how many 1/4 mile runs can i get out of:

50 shot 10 lbs bottle

50 shot 15 lbs bottle

I would like to know as well, I guess it depends how long you mean by a run. I would assume 1/4?

yeah, for like 13 seconds, spraying all gears from 3k - 6.2 k RPMs

on the 10lb bottle i would say 9 to 14 shots quater mile run and the 15lb bottle 13 to 19 shots but also it depends on the type of nitrous kit and jetting used and also if only using in 2nd and 3rd gears then you can expect a few more shots

how much does a refill cost usually on both bottles?

3.50 a pound for a fill up...at least around here, umm a bottle last me one night at th track, which is around 10 runs, but that's a 75...

Depends on what kind of runs.

I have 10lb bottle at $4.10 a lb.

If im street racing, then the spurts are like 30mph-70mph, and not a full fledged 0-100 like in the 1/4, so i can get a lot out of a bottle. Probably 30-40 runs.

Drag runs, you can probably get a good 15-18. Probably 15 then your bottle pressure will get low.

Dude where the hell can you get nitrous for 4.10 a pound. Damn I pay 7.50per pound.

sounds abour right to me, but what i've found is that the better the kit, the better you do on the spray. a bottle warmer(keeps pressure up), good purge valve(less waste) and remote opener(nitrous lines always seem to leak a little) help a lot.

I paid $4 / lbs when I got my bottle filled. I thought that was a bite much, but I never bought any before.

are you fucking kidding me!? I thought I was paying too much! I just go to a big checker auto down the street. Jesus man, find another place, thats really expensive.

Thats like 75 per fill up. :\ :thumbsdow

tell me if you find a place. im sure theres one out there.

Yeah that is rediculous, 3.50 a pound at the shop I go to, but I can't think of the name now, hehe, and it's even on my keychain, but I've been in the desert and havn't filled up in awhile...damn desert...

I get 10 blasts down the 1/4 on a 10 lb bottle. This is also on a 125 shot too, on a v-8. So you guys shoudl get about 15-20 on a smaller shot. Maybe more.

we run spray in a few car my brother and i have and if you by it by the 60 # bottles. it is only 1.70 a pound, so that is the only way to do it. it is 5.50 a pound at all the local speed shopes

here u go guys....do the appropriate math for individual shot type-
this is for wet kits and from what i have read it goes as follows

100 shot at 10sec= .8lbs of nitrous

therefore a 50 shot for 10 sec uses .4lbs

so a half pound per 10 sec in a 10lb bottle =?

thats right 200sec! or a long ass time lol

ehhh, the math isn't that neat. the thing with nitrous is that no two set ups are the same. a lot will depend on how good the spray nozzle is, how much pressure it's under, how much power the car makes to begin with, etc etc etc. nooooooow... i would GUESS that if you had a bottle warmer, didn't purge the line every 30 seconds to impress losers, were jetted correctly and it was running right... maybe 15-20 good runs out of it.

thats why i said from what i have read it avg. about that but you are correct...no two set ups are the same so it will varry and by the end bottle pressure drops too

holy crap, you guys get ripped, I pay 2.50-2.85 a pound max.

as joe said, it really varies on a lot of things. get purge happy and you'll be out a lot faster than you think.

having a bottle heater is the key to getting the most pulls at stable pressure out of a full bottle. I ran down to a little less than a pound a few weeks ago and she was stable the whole time, where as before I had the heater, or at least a good one, I would have fluctuation once it dropped below 5lbs
